Why don't airlines also do charter jets?

The programs just didn't mention the service. The airlines will
all charter a full size jet to anybody with the necessary cash,
and many are in the business jet market. Here is a link to
Delta's charter division, as an example:

Thanks for the information.

I should also have mentioned that when United set up its charter
jet division, there was a huge amount of criticism about the money
that was spent on purchasing the new aircraft, when the main
carrier was in such financial trouble.

I looked all over the United Airline website and found nothing that linked
to their private jet charter business. In doing a Google search on this, I
only found news articles about the service but no website for it. Has
United's charter business since been cancelled?
